Clinical Trials for Esophageal Cancer

A Phase III Study of Consolidative Radiotherapy in Patients With Oligometastatic HER2 Negative Esophageal and Gastric Adenocarcinoma (EGA)

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

HealthScout AI summary: Adults with HER2‑negative esophageal or gastric adenocarcinoma with oligometastatic disease (≤3 sites, no peritoneal/CNS) and at least stable disease after induction FOLFOX or CAPOX are randomized to consolidative radiotherapy to all known sites plus continuation of the same chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone. Aims to determine if adding local radiotherapy improves overall survival; no investigational drugs are used.
